Abstract :The Uzbek literature between the years of 1905 and 1930 is called the Jadid (جديد) Pe-riod Uzbek Literature. In the early 1900s, as in Uzbek social life, many innovations occurred in literary life. The ideas and activities of Ismail Gasprinskī are effective in calling this period Jadid (reformer). The innovation movements that started with Ismail Gasprinskī’s visit to Bukhara in 1893 in which he also visited the Amir of this place continues without slowing down. After Ismail Gasprinskī set up the school named “usul-i jadid – new method” in Bukhara, this innovative movement begins to spread rapidly all over Turkestan. As a result of this movement, schools with the mentioned name were established in various districts of Turkestan.Intellectuals such as Abdullah Avlanī, Mahmud Khodja Behbudī, Khamza Hakimzāde Niyazī, Abdurauf Fitrat displayed a pro-innovation reformist attitude as an idea. They considered that it is compulsory to apply the needs of modern life, new educational sys-tem, new thoughts and ideas as a way of getting rid of the people’s troubles and they tried to reveal this with their works. In this article, the effect of Ismail Gasprinskī of Crimea and his Terjuman Newspaper on the formation of Jadid Period Uzbek Literature and the Uzbek intellectuals of the period are studied.
